Which of your apps actually makes money?

Revenue dashboards lie by omission.

Every tool shows MRR going up. None of them subtract the hosting, database and AI bills that eat it, and none of them keep a history you can check. DevMargin does three things they don’t:

Costs get a chart of their own.

Bills are one or two orders of magnitude smaller than revenue, so on a shared axis they vanish. They keep their own zero-anchored axis instead, with earnings behind them as a shape and a floor the bars never cross — because a crossing point would read as “costs passed earnings” when it means nothing. The real comparison is the percentage, and it turns red above 100%.

Publish the numbers you pick. Only those.

Build in public without exporting a screenshot every month. Your portfolio gets a page at devmargin.app/open/you, and you choose twice what appears on it: which projects, and which figures — MRR, earned revenue, costs, net margin, users, the trend. Everything starts off, a new project is private until you say otherwise, and nothing is ever published as a side effect of anything else.

What makes it worth reading is the line most public dashboards cannot print: each figure says which rails it came from and the date of the snapshot it was read out of. Anyone can type a number into a design tool. Yours can show where it came from.

Safe to connect.

Compared with what you might already use.

Six tools overlap with this one; three are here — the closest rival, an established analytics suite, and a native app that keeps everything on your own machine. Their figures were read from their own sites on 13 August 2026. If one has gone stale that is an error rather than a tactic, and we would like to hear about it.

The last two rows are the ones where something else wins, and they are the reason to believe the six above: a comparison written by the seller is worth exactly as much as its least convenient row. All six, in full — including App Tracker, Baremetrics and SoleOS →

A portfolio your agent reads — and your app writes to.

Every tool in this category aggregates revenue for a person to look at. This one has two doors, pointing opposite ways. An agent reads the portfolio over MCP. Your own product writes to it over the push API — reporting the figures no billing rail will ever know, because they are not billing events.

metrics

What a product is earning right now, and how many people use it. User counts are the clearest case: no rail reports them, so without this they stay unknown. Latest state — each push replaces the last.

earned

What a given month actually earned, and whether that is gross or proceeds — stated by you, never assumed, because the same number means two different things. This is what gives a product an Earned history rather than only a rate.

cost

A running bill, upserted by its label, so re-pushing the same one daily updates a row instead of stacking duplicates. Costs land in net margin immediately — no pull needed.

curl -X POST https://devmargin.app/api/push \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DEVMARGIN_PUSH_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"channel":"<channel-id>","metrics":{"users":1234}}'

The push token (dmp_…) is write-only: it reports figures and cannot read your portfolio back, so one that leaks out of a deploy log exfiltrates nothing. Sixty pushes an hour is the ceiling, and once a day is plenty — the snapshot that reads them runs daily.

Pricing

One paid plan, and the only thing it changes is how far back you can look. Every rail, every project, every cost, the daily pull, the MCP server and the push API are in the free plan — it is history and trends you pay for.

Founding price: $49 a year for the first 100 accounts — 100 left — and it stays that price for as long as the subscription runs. It is the yearly plan with a discount Stripe caps at 100 redemptions, so when they are gone the checkout stops offering it rather than this page quietly going out of date. Start free, then upgrade under Account.

Nothing is deleted on the free plan. Your snapshots keep being recorded every day whatever you pay, so upgrading shows your whole past immediately — the limit is on reading it, not on keeping it.

Prices in USD, excluding any VAT that applies to you. Stripe is the merchant of record, so it handles payment, invoicing and EU VAT — card details never reach DevMargin. Upgrading and cancelling both happen under Account; cancelling takes effect immediately and drops you back to the free plan. Weighing this against something else?
